subiect and slight IN treatment There Is aiwaysa
public however, which enjoys strong language ana

this public even the least important of the essays
will have some interest Moreover there are chap

Nobody, since Voltaire and Gallant,
has poured out such vOlleys of them
on society, on laws, on government,
on France and the French, expires
sions which, like those OF Monies
quieu, penetrate to and suddenly
illuminate the darkest recessos; they
are not hammered out laboriously,
but burst forth, the Outpourings Of
his intellect, its natural, involuntary
and constant gesticulation. And
what adds TO their value is that out
side OF the council meetings and Of
intimate converse, he does not AZ
them; he employs then solely for
thinking; at other times he subordi-
mates them to his end, which is t.s
practical effect; generally he writes
and speaks another language, the
language which is suited to his audi
ence he eliminates surprises, the fits
and starts of the Imagination and Of
improvisation, the sutburst of
genius and inspiration. Those
which he allows himself are
simply employed to dazzle
this or that parsonage whom he
wants TO accept one Of his grand
ideas, Plus VII or the Emperor
Alexander; his conversational tone
is then caressiAg, familiar. expansive
and pleasing, He is before the foot
lights, and when on the stage he
plays all parts, tragedy and comedy,
with the same spirit, whether fulmi-
mating or iAsinuating, and eVen with
humor, With his generals, minis
ters and principal agents he re-
stricts himself to q concise, positive,
technical, business style. Any other
would spoil matters. The impas-
stoned sentiment is apparently only
in the imperious breVity, force and
dryness Of his accent. For his ar
mics and the common run he has
his proclamations and bulletins;

composed for effect, the facts as they

A CHRONOLOGICAL STORY
THAI ALL MUSICIANS
Should Preserve for future Refer
ence-varIatiOns In II From
1913 TO 1885.

NEW YORK, May l3.-The nor
NAL pitch has always been mooteG
que stion and has been fruitful o.
much discord in musical circles. Tn,
following resume will show its varia
tons and furnish key to the history
of it:
Nj. Prastorius died 1921, M. Mer-
Sonny died 1913 and |. Sauyeur, who
died ZIG, we're the first who con
ceived the idea of giving uniformity
to pitch, aud the question in those
days was on the A., with 500 yibra-
tions in the second.
1900. Chladni proposed to estab-
lish the pitch of O. At 5l2 vibrations.
which would allow for the A, S53l
vibrations to the second.
1888. In Paris the tuning forks
had Sl3-SSl. In Berlin, 963, and in
Vienna, S67 $50 vibrations respect.
lively.
1884. In the convention of Ger
man natural philosophers held at
Stuttgart, Mr.. Scheibler made a
proposition to establish the A with
$50 vibrations.
1857. Lissajou proved that the A
of the Grand Opera at Paris had
500. In the opera house at Berlin,
6S97. At the La Scala, Milan, 0O3
and in London, 9l0 vibrations.
1859. In France an imperial de-
cree of February 10th, fixed the
normal sound A (diapason) at $40
vibrations.
1929. The French diapason A.
was established by order of the Em-
psror, and also adopted in Belgium.
1872. A commission in London
adopted the O. with 52S vibrations,
which would allow $50 vibrations for
the A..
By royal decree in February, 1879,
the normal pitch, $40 vibrations, was
established in Spain, and no subsidy
would be paid to any theater, school,
concert not conforming to the same.
1882. At the Court Opera, the A.
was by direction raised to SS2 vibra-
tions.
1884, In Italy the b fiat was fixed
for military bapds at 9l2 vibrations.
1885. Belgium renewed the adep-
ton of the French normal pitch A.
at $40 vibrations.
1885. An international convention
was held in Vienna for the purpose
of unifying the pitch. The confer
ence approved and established the
A. with $40 vibrations to the sec
ond, and it was Immediately adopted
at the Court Opera, Vienna, which,
but short time before, had raised
the pitch to 900.
This information may account for
the often bewilding number Of AS to
be found in an orchestra, for an in
strument, before 1885 when the $40
vibrations was adopted universally in
Europe, made in Vienna, and one in
Paris, would have quite an apprecia.
BILE difference in pitch, and each per-
former would stoutly maintain that
his instrument was correct. One may
find this difference any day, particu
larly if he be flute player who has
to tune with a clarionette player that
may have three instruments by diff
ferent makers.

We are hungry" we said.
Truly" he replied. I'VE expect
you to be on Sunday night. It's the

TO eat something would be q

Certainly" replied the clerk.
That's the reason we don't allow it
on the Lords day. The cook has
gone to church."
He looked at his watch, and he
seemed to say to himself, These
men are not only barbarians from
New York, but they are infidels who

l wanted a drink of whisky the
next day. I've got foolish notion
that l am the best judge of what |

newspaper tried 20 make me under
stand that that notion was mistake,
and that Massachusetts knew better
than | did. We disagreed civilly.
Then he took me into back room,
and after remarking that there was
no hope for the country save in pro-
hibition, he pulled flask from his
pocket and gave me drink.
That man may have been a moral
ist-but he was certainly politician.
Music in that town wore an austere
air that did not belong to it. 1t was
high backed and stiff necked. 1t was
weakened by selectmen, and gagged
by mothers in Israel who laid down
their tape line of Lowell Mason to
take up Gounod and Handel. The
great intelligent audience measured
the worth of the concerts by the suf-
fering they caused-just as their
fathers had measured religion by its

ST.. PAUL, May 14.-The Pioneer Press
has advices Of forest fires along the
river northeast Of Brainerd, two or
three townships having been burned
over. A heavy rain which fell this
evening greatly assisted the settlers in
the fight against the flames. The
greatest injury to timber and logs is
in the vicinity Of Horse Shoe Lake.
Several settlers. have lost stock and

A Good DishOD.

As a rule the bishops of the Epis-
copal Church are married men. One
of the rare exceptions, bachelor
bishop now holds the primacy. |
remember the amused air OF vexa-
ton with which Bishop Williams
criticised Bishop Eastburn, of Massa-
chusetts, for reading at his consecra-
ton the epistle which contains the
restraining injunction, "A bishop
then must be \ \ the husband
of one wife," when he had the choice
of an epistle which contained no such
reference. | think that it has been
a fortunate thing for the church that
the bishop of Connecticut has re-
manned unmarried, for around
his grave, when he comes to die,
will gather many generations Of
Berkeley boys, who were his chill
dren in the spirit and have been
nOurished from his heart into a
grander manhood than they would
otherwise have known. 1t was after
his conservation as bishop that he
conceived the idea of founding the
Berkeley Divinity School by
transferring the theological de.
partment Of Trinity College to
Middletown. The transfer was made
in 1854, when the bishop and eleven
students-the little leaven," he
called them-took possession of the
old Jarvis house and begin their
studies. 1t was a primitive affair in
someGrespects, and yet the bishop,

American families in general have
